Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

I pulled out my touch pad along with the motherboard when it was still attached how can I put this back in
Pull out the ribbon the way the tutorial says and then you can place the touchpad back correctly. It needs to be put in from the inside of the controller, not the outside.
This guide could be enhanced by showing the L1/L2, R1/R2 button cluster in some photos. I needed to replace the silicone grommet underneath the buttons due to Sony's design flaw of having R2/L2 press on the silicone with a blade shaped extension.
What to do If after cleaning some buttons no longer work? I was very careful when disassembling and reassembling the remote.
You might wanna make sure that flimsy plastic lining the buttons push is in its proper place. Sometimes it moves and if it doesn't line up just right it won't work.
I took the "caveman" approach to this tutorial because I spilled soda near the controller and the circle button was sticky. It was an emergency operation done with a Phillips one size too large, a pocket knife for a spudger, and my cigar fingers for forceps. I must say, after some initial confusion, this tutorial helped me put it back together easily without breaking anything (a minor miracle all on its own). Thank for this.
I need help. The up and right direction on the d-pad are not functioning. I took controller apart and made sure everything was clean and unfortunately did not fix problem. My question is has anyone else had this issue and if I buy a new silicon part for the d-pad will that fix it?
My R2 button is constant being pressed. Even after I opened it and cleaned it. Please help me with this??
I connected it to pc and even removed the R2 button while checking for the buttons on pc,and button 8 (I.e R2 button on controller) shows as pressed all the time even when it's not there.
The “up" button on my d-pad has not been working recently so I followed the tutorial (helpful by the way), found no obvious problems, put it all back together, but the button still will not work. Any tips?
Are the contacts lining up right? That might be the problem.
how to clean the green circuit board because ps button is unresponsive? the true circuit button how to clean or repair it? cause mine is not responding in the motherboard assembly
My vibration motor has fallen out and the wires are disconnected, how can I fix it?
After I did this my right dpad button stopped functioning, is there a way to fix this?
This is the original model. How about an update since there have been about 3 new assemblies and a new version of the DS4?
Here is a solution to a broken R2 button. Really simple fix.
My PS4 is registering R2 button input without me pressing anything on the Dualshock 4. How can I fix it? This is only apparent when I play games… For example, when I play Spiderman where R2 is used for sprinting and web swinging, Spiderman will alternate between running and jogging, without me actually providing any kind of input via R2.
Thank you so much
